  1. From Bioreactors to Brier Scores: Building Model90, a Football Prediction Engine

    What happens when a bioreactor engineer points his state-estimation toolkit at football. Model90 is a statistical forecasting engine for the 2026 World Cup and the major leagues, built on Dixon-Coles Poisson, Elo, xG and a calibrated meta-model. An honest look at how it works and what its Brier score really means.

  3. I love learning to play games semi competitively. 2021, I learnt #sudoku and hit a point where even the hardest challenges on #NYT took a max of 15 minutes. This year I’ve started playing #chess.

    After multiple rounds of calibration I figure my #EloRating is somewhere between 600 and 660. Going to set goals of increasing a 100 at a time. So first stop is to be stable at a 750-ish rating. My guess is that it’ll take a month before I see the improvements.
